Bedminster Fire Station requires major refurbishment and an extension to the rear of the building including new domestic / sleeping accommodation, Lecture facility and refurbishment of the existing ground floor office building in order to provide a modern, functional and fit for purpose facility for the future.

A recent ground floor extension has suffered a major failure associated with dry rot in the floor joists and has subsequently been stripped out internally. Avon Fire & Rescue Service (AF&RS) must maintain an operational service from the site throughout the redevelopment. Bedminster Fire Station is operation 24/7 365 days of the year. Therefore, consideration of how the services accommodation and response requirements can be maintained is vital element of this scheme.
